and getting a detailed spoke response to my questions, i will support his nomination as secretary of defense. it seems like the frost is melting, but there's still the frost from the right. >> well, there is. i think we'll see some contentious hearings. we heard some hints over the weekend that republicans will bring out former staffers, former aides who have clashed with hagel in the past. senator bob kosher in tennessee said that i think on cbs' sunday show, so no smooth sailing by any means, but at the end of the day, having schumer on board is a big deal, having boxer on board is a big deal. and with 5 of them, we'll see whether or not republicans really want to use their political capital in trying to filibuster a nominee, especially one by the way, who will have so much support from outside groups like veterans associations. >> there'sing so much talk about how there is frost between the left and right. i want to get your take on this. this was a statement made by the president yesterday at the last press conference of his first administration. it was about the aloofness perception tha

marco rubio will cooperate with democrats and rand paul cooperating on some national defense issues, cutting military spending, some spying issues that we care about. you'll see paul ryan making a big show out of not cooperating with democrats but always voting yes as he did for the fiscal cliff deal and as he has in many times previous so it's going to be opportunistic between them, but they haven't sorted it out, this civil war between themselves and so it makes it very difficult for a single figure to rally under the republican mantle. >> ari, to you, to whatever matt is saying and add to whatever you would like to to the conversation here. we saw tea partiers rebel back in 2010 because they did not see the fiscal conservatism that they believe that the republican party should -- should have in its platform. might you see those centrists, those moderate republicans saying, hey, we're going to lead the republican party and start our own, if you will, subgroup because right now the republican party doesn't represent what we want it to be. >> i don't see that kind of splintering, but

they tell me you need to fund our defense department at such and such a level. you immediate to send out social security checks. you need to make sure that you are paying to care for our veterans. they lay all this out for me. they have the spending power. i am required by law to go ahead and pay these bills. separately they also have to authorize the raising of the debt ceiling in order to make sure that those bills are paid, and so what congress can't do is tell me to spend x and then say, but we're not going to give you the authority to go ahead and pay the bills. i just want to repeat because i think sometimes the american people understandably aren't following all the debates here in washington. raising the debt ceiling does not authorize us to spend more. all it does is say that america will pay its bills, and we are not a deadbeat nation. the consequences of us not paying our bills as i outlined in my openings statement would be disastrous. so i understand the impulse to try to get around this in a simple way. there's one way to get around this. there's o

i would disagree with you when you said that he has to play defense against some of the paralysis that we're seeing in government. i think he's going to have a very optimistic speech. he's going to talk about, to use the word that everybody overuses, moving forward. >> what do you want to hear tomorrow? >> what i would like to hear. >> yeah, what do you want to hear, and what do you think we will hear? >> i think -- i'll start with what i think we will hear which is a sort of vague and airy discussion of division in the country, sort of references to what's going on in congress and to the opposition that republicans are providing to what the president wants to do, but he's not going to talk about anything specifically. he's not going to give us a real sense of what a second term is going to be like. he's not going to talk about specific policy issues. he's going to save that until the state of the union. >> and that was one part. what was the other part? >> and what i guess i would like to hear though is a little more of an emphasis about how he actually sees us getting to where he wan
